Chapter 284 Xu Li's Conspiracy
After seeing off Li Yuanyi and Yuan Hao, Jiang Chen returned to his room.
In the room, Su Qingcheng, who was accompanying her, had already prepared hot water.
After helping Jiang Chen take a bath and change his clothes, Su Qingcheng slowly lay down beside Jiang Chen.
Seeing the worry on Jiang Chen's face, Su Qingcheng couldn't help but ask.
"Sir, what difficulties have you encountered?"
Hearing Su Qingcheng's question, Jiang Chen nodded helplessly and said with a sigh.
"Yes, it's been a whole year since I broke through to the Dark Energy level."
"But in this year, my cultivation has not improved at all."
"I don't know what went wrong. Prime Minister Huo and the others have also examined my body."
"But until the end, they didn't find any problems."
Jiang Chen said as he tried to condense the internal energy in his body into true qi.
But after half a day, with sweat all over his forehead, Jiang Chen still didn't succeed.
Seeing the sweat oozing from Jiang Chen's forehead, Su Qingcheng raised her hand to wipe it for him with some heartache.
Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Sir, I remembered a legend."
"Perhaps this legend can help you solve the problem at hand!"
After hearing what Su Qingcheng said, Jiang Chen instantly sat up with joy.
Then, he held Su Qingcheng's hands tightly and asked urgently.
"Qingcheng, what legend is that? Tell me now!"
Facing Jiang Chen's question, Su Qingcheng lowered her head and said hesitantly.
"But, this is just a legend after all. I don't know if it's true or not."
"Legends are never nonsense. Just tell me about this legend!"
As he spoke, Jiang Chen touched Su Qingcheng's head, signaling her to speak out boldly.
Looking at Jiang Chen's urgent eyes, Su Qingcheng no longer hesitated.
He opened his mouth slowly and told the legend he knew.
It turns out that this was the legendary predecessor of the Ming Dynasty.
It was the most powerful martial arts sect in the entire continent two hundred years ago - the "Ming Cult"!
According to legend, this Ming Cult has three Bodhi seeds.
As for this Bodhi seed, it is the dream of countless martial artists!
Legend has it that taking a Bodhi seed can help one break free from the shackles and reach the highest level of martial arts!
And now with the demise of the Ming Cult, he is the only one who might know the whereabouts of the Bodhi seed.
I'm afraid it can only be the royal family of the Ming Dynasty!
After telling this legend, Su Qingcheng said to Jiang Chen.
"Sir, this is all I know about this legend."
"If you want to use the Bodhi seeds to break through, I'm afraid you can only ask the emperor of Beiming."
After listening to Su Qingcheng's words, Jiang Chen closed his eyes.
It has to be said that the legend told by Su Qingcheng made Jiang Chen doubt his life.
He originally thought that the only difference between this world and his previous life was the existence of internal strength.
But he never imagined that the magical objects similar to Bodhi seeds that he had only seen in martial arts novels in his previous life actually existed! !
"It seems that I really need to get rid of the Beiming and Qi coalition forces as soon as possible."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen opened his eyes and a cold light flashed.
The next morning, Jiang Chen brought Li Yuanyi and Yuan Hao to Xu Xiao.
"My Lord, you've been traveling so long, why don't you take a rest for another day?"
"Are you in such a hurry to come find me?"
Looking at Jiang Chen who was still a little tired, Xu Xiao pinched his beard and asked with a smile.
"I simply cannot bear to see the people of Xu and Song suffer any longer."
"Compared with the people under the rule of the king, my hard work is nothing!"
Jiang Chen said this, bowed to Xu Xiao, and continued.
"Lord Xu, I want to lead my troops to attack immediately."
"If we delay any further, I'm afraid the situation will only become increasingly unfavorable for us!"
After hearing what Jiang Chen said, Xu Xiao curled his lips .
How could he, an old and experienced man, not see that Jiang Chen was definitely not worried about the safety of Xu Song’s people!
But now he is constantly losing ground and can only rely on Jiang Chen's strength.
Only then would it be possible to repel the alliance between Qi and Northern Ming and thus maintain one's own rule.
Thinking of this, Xu Xiao had no choice but to speak to Jiang Chen with a forced smile.
"Since the Marquis has such a noble heart, why should I stop him?"
"Someone, come here and tell that fellow Chang Yuchun immediately."
"Let him lead an army of 30,000 and follow the Marquis!"
"Yes, my king."
At Xu Xiao's order, a guard of Xu Song who was standing by walked out of the hall.
And faced with the fact that Xu Xiao sent Chang Yuchun to lead troops to fight with him.
Jiang Chen just smiled slightly, all this was already within his expectations.
However, Jiang Chen did not expect that Xu Xiao would be so willing to spend so much money.
You know, there are only 80,000 soldiers left in the entire Xu Song!
But now, Xu Xiao actually sent almost half of his troops to fight with Jiang Chen.
This was something Jiang Chen had not expected...
Originally, Jiang Chen thought that Xu Xiao would at most send 10,000 people to guide him.
From this we can see that Xu Xiao, the king of Xu Song State, still has some courage!
With Xu Xiao's farewell, Jiang Chen led 50,000 vanguards and Chang Yuchun's 30,000 troops out of the city.
Watching the backs of Jiang Chen's army disappear on the horizon, Xu Xiao slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Wang Ying came out behind him.
Hearing the footsteps coming from behind, Xu Xiao turned around and asked Wang Ying.
"How is it, are all things arranged?"
"Go back, my lord. Everything has been arranged !"
"Zhu Qiyu and Qi have sent 50,000 troops to ambush them on the road they must take."
"We just need to wait for Jiang Chen's army to fall into the ambush circle, and then we can cooperate with General Chang Yuchun."
"Bury Jiang Chen and his 50,000 troops!"
Wang Ying said this while laughing sinisterly.
"Yes, if we succeed in destroying Jiang Chen this time, you will be credited with the greatest achievement."
"Next, it's up to Zhu Qiyu and the Qi people."
After praising Wang Ying, Xu Xiao turned around.
Then, he smiled coldly in the direction where Jiang Chen and others left.
"Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen, how can you be so smart?"
"You wouldn't have thought that the establishment of Xu Song was just a conspiracy..."
It turned out that Xu Xiao had already colluded with Zhu Qiyu.
The so-called Qi and Northern Ming allied forces invaded.
It was just to lure Jiang Chen out and weaken the strength of Xia State and Jiang Chen!
From the very beginning, all of this was caused by Xu Xiao and Zhu Qiyu.
A grand drama prepared for Qi and Xia!
After receiving Xu Xiao's praise, Wang Ying was flattered and immediately knelt down on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I am just following your instructions!"
